Linux GPU Configuration Tool 'LACT' adds NVIDIA support

Quoting: DamonLinuxPL
Quoting: nnohonsjnhtsylaySadly its written in rust so it takes forever to compile on my computer, even with my cpu with 24 threads
[...]
Thanks, can you explain a bit more for noobs like me?
Like I don't understand why compiling Rust implying all of that and not when compiling C (and maybe the question could be ask for Go code or another language I don't know).
What are the differences, and why? Is it fixable?

Linux kernel 6.12 is out now with real-time capabilities, more gaming handheld support

So if I understand correctly, the RT kernels will disappear, as it's become useless now?

Better Dvorak keyboard detection.
But here's a wine GIF still:
It's me or this gif is so sexual? :huh:

First Steam Deck plugin on Steam will bring GOG and Epic Games compatibility

Quoting: LinasWow, this is a big can of worms to open.

If they allow software that changes the behavior of Steam (e.g. plugins) on the store itself, it would surely open up a lot of possibilities, but also ripe for abuse.

I would hate to see Steam become this:
Ah yes... The Golden Age. :tongue::whistle:

ZOOM Platform store announces new tool to run Windows games on Linux with Proton

Quoting: BigRob029Same.
They've been around for 10 years and we've never heard of them.
Maybe because they're the other, OTHER, Zoom.
I'm very interested; it is great to have another Linux-friendly platform!

....that will probably be the successor to GOG.

Quoting: blindcoderI have never heard of this platform before. Sounds like GOG, when it was still "Good Old Games".
I'll have a look, thanks!
The Other Zoom doesn't exist, we don't talk about it... :happy:

This is great. Now GOG when? If ZOOM can do it, I'm sure you can too!

Creative Assembly confirm Alien: Isolation is getting a sequel

Quoting: robvvIn the original Alien: Isolation there was a small change you could make to one file to ensure that the alien didn't hunt the player.
The alien just wanted to be your friend and give you a hug. :grin:
Aliens: the most misunderstood creatures. :sad:

6 years after Kickstarter, Orphan Age dev Studio Black Flag shuts without a release
6 Oct 2024 at 11:13 pm UTC

Quoting: Eike
Quoting: RandomizedKirbyTree47Every single campaign I backed either delivered everything they promised, or is in the process of doing so and making steady progress. A few projects I backed were delayed a few years before eventually delivering the rewards. I have never been ripped off by a Kickstarter I backed.
I can say the same for my nine backings...

Quoting: RandomizedKirbyTree47I have never backed a crowdfunder for a video game and I have no plans to do so. There are so many ways it can go badly and so many already-existing games I can play that I just don't want to take the risk.
... which are all video games supporting Linux.
Wow, you must be very lucky...

Jesus Christ, lol... :woot:

Quoting: slaapliedjeUhm, what? The richest companies on the planet are ALL on the Left. Microsoft, Google, Apple.
(What a thread huh?)

No, you can't believe that, do you? You're just kidding, right? I'm afraid you're not...
Or you really have a strange definition of what left is, and it's surely not what is mine...
